Tomato soup with grilled cheese (even better with ham!) is classic. :) I have to ask.  Why margarine and not butter?

  FWIW I used to prefer margarine to butter for grilled cheese. A couple years ago I switched to  little olive oil. More recently I have switched from cooking them on a grill or in a pan to doing them in my air fryer.

Ah, I remember grilled cheese and egg salad and just picked boogers.  I used butter, but the bread soaked it up which I ate all of.  This always struck me as the epitome of function to form with only the possible exception of crunchy peanut butter.  Next up on the food chain is mashed potatoes.  Always peel your potatoes.  Parsley goes well here.
